  Primary school children are now required to learn how to use the Internet and teachers increasingly need to acquire the same skills for professional purposes. These three no-nonsense resource books have been created specifically to steer primary school teachers through Internet technology and help them to deliver the new Internet strand of the ICT curriculum confidently. The series authors and consultants have drawn on their extensive expertise to create three books that provide all the help teachers will need to source information on the World Wide Web, use e-mail and write a school web page. Each book includes: a step-by-step illustrated guide to all the essential computer functions; lists of the best web sites to access and over 25 lesson ideas with photocopiable activity sheets for pupils to use. There are also tips on classroom management, answers to the most common teacher questions, glossaries and at-a-glance reference charts.
